About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Live well

ABOUT ME

I love learning about the world and enjoying myself in it. I'm hungry for ideas, adventure and croissants. And I want to share these with as many people as I can. I get excited about nature and new people, food and fireworks, sports and spiritualism, books and beauty, heroism and handicraft, and lots more things that I can't fit into this sentence structure.If you host me, I'll be delighted to explore new things, have great conversations, and cook and eat lots of tasty food with you.

PHILOSOPHY

Just do it!
